There has been strong 'evidence' that both the Vietnam and Afghanistan wars were merely to cover the opium business -- the operation Vietnam hid was in the Golden Triangle, and involved our CIA with the mossad and the Meyer Lansky crime syndicate; in Afghanistan it was, ostensibly, our CIA.

My buddies and I graduated high school in '65 … one of them was in Army Special Forces … and, when he got to Vietnam, he proved to be a very good shot at very long distances. The CIA showed up at his CO's office and they commandeered my buddy -- to assassinate local political and military leaders in that Golden Triangle area who were reluctant to go along with the CIA/mossad/Meyer Lansky crime syndicate. He was an assassin for them for more than 12 months … and had confirmed kills at more than 1 1/4 miles.

This was all taking place at a time when Nixon and his cohort (Henry the K) were vehemently denying that the US had no troops or other personnel in Laos or Cambodia …

He passed a few years ago … but going back to '68 when we both returned to civilian life, we had many talks about his 'job' in Vietnam. All of the killing he did there -- for our drug cartel and otherwise -- took a heavy toll on his soul.

Regarding Colombia and its drug empire: recall how during the late-'70s/early-'80s, our DEA was actively down in that region ostensibly fighting the cartels. Many of those DEA folks perished -- killed by the cartels -- and eventually a very, very inconvenient truth emerged: it was the idf that equipped and trained those cartels to fight our DEA … big surprise, that. It was also an era of enormous money laundering, especially in places like LA, where just one dealer in the LA Jewelry Mart was caught -- quite by accident -- laundering well over $1.5 Billion per year.

As usual, our corrupt government will do anything necessary to loot other country's resources. It's beyond shameful, but has been going on since the beginning of this country.
